Default RV-6 Video 1/9/08
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iDqCyavj1k
"Hope the clip doesn't bore anyone too badly - it was kinda thrown together. Some of us are meeting in Gainseville for lunch Thursday (details)"

Interesting. Thought I heard a couple of Doug giggles in there over the engine noise.

Every video I see affirms the niceness of the tip-up, now NOT that there is anything WRONG with the slider!

And, I think I heard Doug's giggle, too. Although, I don't know what prompted it.

And, I agree with Larry. The video DOES come across as a compelling argument for a tip-up if you're used to the tip-up view (IMHO).

The echelon turn hand signal looks like the 'hook em horns' gesture, and Danny went to UT. The laughing had something about that.

Couldn't agree more on the slider/tip up thing - kept getting in the darn shot!
